Default cheap billet grille

if you use chrome door edging the flexible stuff you can put it on the recessed fins and it looks like a true billet grille most people cant tell its cheap door edge molding

I used that metal gutter guard one time. Cut it and bent to shape. It looked okay IMO, but after time it got all dull and discolored....so I ended up removing it. Here's a pic...not very good, but it's the only one I got right now.
